Former Coventry City players Marvin Sordell and Stephen Bywater have signed fresh terms with Burton Albion.

Bywater - who performed on-loan for the Sky Blues during 2005 - signed for the Brewers in 2016, but has made only two appearances.

The 36-year-old was released by Doncaster Rovers, before plying his trade for Kerala Blasters ahead of his return to England.

The shot-stopper, who has also played for West Ham United and Derby County during both sides' Premier League tenures, has seen his expertise called upon by Sheffield Wednesday, Millwall and Gillingham in recent years.

Sordell, meanwhile, was only signed in the summer by the Sky Blues and made 25 appearances, scoring seven goals.

But then-manager Russell Slade has used the 25-year-old to help him wheel and deal in the transfer market, signing Stuart Beavon, Callum Reilly and Nathan Clarke as the striker departed for the Pirelli Stadium.
